Today, I’m talking guys with Andrea and Erika!Two and a half years ago, two of our closest friends set us up. Fast forward a year later and we were engaged. Fast forward eight months later, and we were married. We went to the same college, had mutual friends, and knew of each other. If you would have told my college self that Eric and I would get married, I would have laughed. He was the last person I expected to reconnect with after college, but I thank God that we did. He extends more grace than anyone I know, always see the good in people, and pushes me to be the best version of myself. Last month I talked about how he won my heart (and continues to do so) here. He’s my guy, and I’m so thankful for him. 🙂

I’m a Dad’s girl. My Dad is extremely hard-working, owns his own business, lived in a house with three women, and still managed to stay sane. 😉 I am so grateful for him and all he did and continues to do for his family.

This post would not be complete without talking about my Grandpa. A few months ago I talked about how much my Grandpa meant to me and the role he played in my life, here. He is missed so much.

One.On Sunday we had a surprise baby shower for Sheri. I loved celebrating Baby Long! 🙂

Two.Eric, Gilmore Girls, and little bit of Talenti was a successful and favorite Saturday night.

Three.Getting together with a group of friends to watch hometowns this week was obviously a favorite.

Four.Lara bars are one of my favorite snacks and I think I decided lemon is officially my favorite kind. Amen.

Five.Our flights are officially booked and we are going to Colorado! How could this not be a favorite?!?! Eric has always wanted to go, and after living there for a summer, I am so excited to show him places I’ve been and explore new ones with him. It is absolutely beautiful and we are so ready for a vacation!

One thing that was on our joint Christmas list this year, was a night away. Anywhere. My parents treated us to a Bed and Breakfast and what better time to go then Valentines weekend?! We were beyond excited for a night away and a change of scenery! Right as we walked in, we were greeted by the sweetest couple, most cozy room and view, and instant relaxation. We spent the night watching the snow fall, eating delicious food, and reminiscing about us. In the morning we had endless coffee, sunshine, and an amazing breakfast. I loved our first married Valentine’s weekend together because it was just what we needed and so much more. xo

We made it to the middle of the (work) week! Praise Jesus! Today, I’m linking up with Mel, Shay, and Sheaffer for What’s Up Wednesday.

1. What we’re eating this week:Food Babe’s Kale Salad. I talked about it here and here and it’s on the menu this week!

Bonus Question: What is your favorite Easter tradition?

Although I love traditions, we don’t really have any Easter traditions other than being with family. I am perfectly fine with that after how busy this season of life has felt. 🙂 Although I wouldn’t mind if this became a tradition. 😉 What are some of your fav Easter traditions?
